Through It All
Wasn't in no streets
But I damn near seen it all
Always kept to myself
Didn't talk about what I saw
Rose from the bottom to the top
Then they fall
Lived with a lot of shit I seen
Now I barely talk
Seen death of the innocent
But I never mentioned it
Waking up with blood on my clothes
Ain't help me mentally
Parts of my story
I ain't looking for no sympathy
I know people been there worse
I can show some empathy
Danced with devil
He tried to become good friends with me
Bumping into death
He trying to get a hold of me
But my angels
Those my guardians
Never left them alone with me
God give hard battles to strong soldiers
Bro was telling me
Been through some shit
This the reason why it stuck with me
Made it back from shit that others couldn't
I mean that literally
Thinking you got one up on me
No you cannot fuck with me
I ain't with that tough shit
But if I got to it ugly
Pain put more smiles on my face
Thought something was wrong with me
Had so many people around me
But felt more than lonely
Started questioning God
Why it take so long to notice me
Knowing that I'm grateful
But it's hard giving more of me
I know what I am blessed with
So why I can't be selfish
Hard for me to do what I want
Cross shit off my checklist
Triple 2 everywhere
They sending me a message
Tired of passing tests
Why I'm the one who learning lessons
Showed that I am grateful
Always sharing all my blessings
Why I can't be satisfied
Why my soul so restless
Tired of taking it for what it is
All I need is answers
I guess it taught me patience
Now I got some manners
Now I'm smooth damn near groove when I move with it
If I ain't got it imma get it don't care if you did it
My intuition something crazy imma a fool with it
Never sell my soul for fame respect I'll lose with it
Never talked down on me you forever cool with me
Forever love and love forever the type of mood for me
Never influenced by people they can never get through to me
Wiser than older niggas that's how it go usually
Wasn't in no streets
But I damn near seen it all
Always kept to myself
Didn't talk about what I saw
Rose from the bottom to the top
Then they fall
Lived with a lot of shit I seen
Now I barely talk
Seen death of the innocent
But I never mentioned it
Waking up with blood on my clothes
Ain't help me mentally
Parts of my story
I ain't looking for no sympathy
I know people been there worse
I can show some empathy
